What "Big "and" Little "Business
Think About the Dalton
Within the year more than 15,000
retail businesses have installed Daltona
that's what "Little" business thinks.
The Prudential Life Insurance Com
pany has, in the same period, installed
100 Daltons, The Goodyear Tire &
Rubber Company more than 80; dozens
of other large corporations have pur
chased from ten to a hundred machines
each.
That's what "Big" Business thinks
of the Dalton.
And it thinks that way because the
Dalton represents a development in
figuring machines; it provides a sim
pler, faster method of handling all the
figure-work of business. Anyone can
use it.
For the Dalton has 10 keys only;
selection of columns is unnecessary;
touch operation, with its saving of
6,000 to 20,000 needless eye andhead
motions daily, can be learned in 10
minutes; it makes the Dalton 25 to 80
per cent faster than ordinary machines.
And finally, the Dalton handles
every form of figure-work, for it cal
culates as easily as it odds.
Phone for Demonstration
Why not familiarize yourself with
the many advantages of the Dalton?
It will cost you nothing to have us
bring a Dalton to your store or office
for a short demonstration. Telephone
today.

CylfONEY' needlessly tied up, machines and men idle while over
QyvL head goes on what business man does not know the losses
from overstock or from shortage of materials!

ment, such losses are practically impossible. With your stock records
Rand-displayed, deliveries of the right materials in the right amounts
at the right time, are possible. Maximum and minimum signals
prevent overstocking or material shortages. Thus capital "tied up"
in over stocking or waiting for essential parts is held to a minimum.
Nothing mysterious or complicated about it Rand Traco Cabinets
or' Rand Desk Stands (here shown) simply contain your records in
such a form that they are. alw.ays before your eye. You can get at
tHe status of every item of stock instantly. And since the cards
need not be removed, they cannot be misplaced or overlookedt
Complete, immediate knowledge of stocl: through Rand Visible Records
enables the Sales Manager to turn it over with greater frequency, per
mits the Purchasing Agent to perform his duties without guesswork,
gives to the Stores Department an ideal efficiency.
And just as in Stock and Purchase Control, Rand Visible Records speed m
up and make more efficient the control of Sales, Production, Personnel,
'Credit, etc., cutting overhead at the same time.
Ask our local office to show you without obligation
